Yes, MSOffice is the main office suite for Macs. (At least at every place that I've worked).

No unless they run a software windows emulator(there are 2 available) or you install a Orange Micro PCI Windows board. The software solutions are slow and the Orange Micro solution is expensive and buggy. They are able to open PC files. I have used them all. JFD

do apple computers use microsoft applications? Check out MacTopia for a Mac-centric view of things from Microsoft: microsoft.com Especially the "Who are we" section: microsoft.com Microsoft is the one of the largest application developers for the Macintosh mostly on the strength of Office98 (which is a highly Mac-ified version of Office97). It is bundled with some Macs, but not with the iMac which has been selling so well. IE for the Mac (a completely different program from the Windows version) is the default browser on all Macs, but can be easily replaced with Navigator, which ships in a folder on all systems.
